Template:Equation box 1/doc

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Displays an equation in a box.

The full syntax is:

{{Equation box 1|indent|title|equation|ref|cellpadding|border|border colour}}

Parameters

[edit]
  1. Indent: Type colon (:) to indent the box from the left side of the page, or two colons (::) for twice as much indentation. Leave blank, or use any other value, for no indentation. (Note that this uses CSS to adjust margins, rather than following the semantics of the leading colon in wiki markup, which would create an invalid description list.)
  2. Title: Title/name of equation. Leave blank for no title.
  3. Equation: The equation in whatever form, usually <math> equation in LaTeX ... </math>. Leave blank to get an equation showing the general form of a complex number, (only useful for examples).
  4. Ref: Reference label. Calls {{EquationRef}} with provided value as the parameter. Leave blank for no reference label.
  5. Cellpadding: Number of pixels to be used as padding of the box around the equation (how much the box wraps around the equation, margins). Default is 5.
  6. Border: Thickness of the border line in pixels (do not include "px"; it will be added). Default is 2.
  7. Border colour: Colour code (colour name or hex triplet) for the colour of the border line of the box. Default is #50C878, a nuance of green called emerald green.

See list of colours for use with the border colour. To use the parameters set the parameter equal to the value by using the equals sign.
